about how sensitive we actually are?
Or to ask it another way, how much does
sensitivity multiply through conversation,
until we all seem so fragile for what we say
that what we say needs to be EQ'd all the time,
in real time, to rebalance our dialogues
until we have erased and forgotten
where our thoughts started out...
I still hold the a Garcia/Hunter couplet in all this,
The Grateful Dead having been my guide for life
in so many ways when encounters with a real live
human beings would have been too intensive for me.
In the song 'Althea' Robert Hunter wrote the lyric
'Can't talk to you about talking to you/
we are guilty of the same offence',
where if the shared offence were oversensitivity
the words explain why it so easily divides people.
